It is imperative that principals ensure all appropriate school and district personnel are aware of the situation and that they comply with the stipulations of the statutes. They must immediately report to local law enforcement or the Kentucky State Police if any of the following occurs: someone in the school knows of the student’s whereabouts; the identified student is currently present at the school; or an individual or a school requests the student’s records. A student records transfer request cannot be processed if the student is actively missing and staff should not manually alter the flag in Infinite Campus.<br /><br />IC will automatically end-date the flag when KDE receives notification from Kentucky State Police that a missing student is located. <br /><br />Schools must ensure that the principal email address is kept current in IC to ensure Missing Children Notifications from KDE are directed to the appropriate personnel. Additionally, a process alert will be sent to all members of the Missing Child User Group with calendar rights to the school(s) of the missing student. Schools and districts can reference the Missing Child Process and Procedures document (<a href="https://bit.ly/3hpkpgI" title="Click to open in a new window or tab" target="_blank">https://bit.ly/3hpkpgI</a>) to prepare and maintain. <br /><br />Please let me know if you have additional questions, thank you!<br /><br />Windy L.

When KDE makes MC-L inactive on 6/30, Infinite Campus will send a process alert message to system administrators.<br /><br />From: Newton, Windy - Office of Continuous Improvement and Support<br />Title III Coordinators,<br />Good morning, it has come to our attention that the Infinite Campus drop list of Accommodation Type under Program Participation | English Learner - Accommodations tab there is a duplicate value. Currently, there are two options for Model Lang/Task Completion (I), one with an invalid code of MC-L and another with the correct code of ML-I. To ensure the invalid code of MC-L is not selected on student records moving forward, KDE will deactivate this code effective 6/30/2021. This will not affect any active records with the MC-L code. KDE will also work with Infinite Campus to create a script to convert any existing, active MC-L records to the correct code of ML-I. Notification will be sent to districts when this update is ready to be deployed. No action is required of the schools or districts at this time.<br /><br />Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns, thank you!<br /><br /> <br />Windy L.

We are in the process of updating the Enrollment Data Standard to better explain the flag. This flag should only be used if a school has a primary program as defined by statute and regulation. Below are the updates that will be in the data standard later this summer, but we wanted to send this out now since many schools and districts may be working on this over the summer. If you have questions about your primary program, please reach out to Pamela Wininger in the Division of Program Standards at <a href=mailto:pamela.wininger@education.ky.gov>pamela.wininger@education.ky.gov</a> or 502-564-2106.<br /><br />Extra Year in Primary: The primary program is a prerequisite for entrance into the fourth grade. For each school having a primary program as defined and established in KRS 158.031 and 704 KAR 3:440, if it is determined that a primary student is not prepared for entrance into the fourth grade, an additional year in primary may be offered to the student and the Extra Year in Primary box should be checked. Schools that do not have a primary program do not need to check the box. The local school district must determine if the student has met the requirements for promotion to fourth grade. Example: According to student records maintained by the school, student A has not met the necessary requirements to complete the primary program. The school will be offering a fifth year in primary to the student to fully prepare the student for fourth grade. The student should be marked as Retained on any previous year enrollments where he/she was retained but should not be marked with the Extra Year in Primary indicator until his/her the fifth-year enrollment in the primary program.<br /><br />Ronda Devine<br />Branch Manager, Student Tracking and Data Branch<br />Division of District Support<br />Office of Finance and Operations<br />Kentucky Department of Education<br />300 Sower Building, 4th Floor<br />Frankfort, KY 40601<br />(502)564-5279, ext. 4444<br /><a href=mailto:ronda.devine@education.ky.gov>ronda.devine@education.ky.gov</a></description> <author>Kentucky Department of Education</author> <guid>http://notify.education.ky.gov/Alerts/Details/cc062be0-2f01-4e8a-b564-758958b5b056</guid> <pubDate>Mon, 28 Jun 2021 17:59:35 GMT</pubDate> <category>All Users</category> <category></category> <category></category> </item> <item> <title>KSIS Notification: Kentucky Academic Standards for Technology will be loaded to all districts</title> <link>http://notify.education.ky.gov/Alerts/Details/48a62334-895e-4ca3-bbc3-9474b8c62274</link> <description>Importance: High<br /><br />KSIS Contacts, <br /> <br />Infinite Campus will load the Kentucky Academic Standards (KAS) for Library Media to all districts beginning June 25. It may take a couple of days for the process to be completed in all districts. This Campus process will not change any KAS content that has previously been imported. <br /> <br />This process will assign a rubric called “Blank Rubric” to the new KAS items. Districts can assign a different rubric in the Standards Bank or rename “Blank Rubric” and define the scores as desired. Next steps for utilizing the KAS in Infinite Campus include configuring rubrics and aligning standards to courses. <br /> <br />The KAS in Infinite Campus should be regarded as an interactive digital companion that can provide direct support for teachers who wish to utilize such features as standards-based grading, progress monitoring, and lesson planning in Infinite Campus. To design high-quality, standards-aligned instruction, educators should continue to use the KAS documents available on the KYstandards.org. Additionally, for digital efficiencies, this will establish the framework to include future course-by-course, course code alignment with connected academic standards through our statewide student information system. <br /> <br />Campus Community Resources <br />• Align standards to courses or course masters en masse using Standards Alignment Wizard - <a href="https://kb.infinitecampus.com/help/standards-alignment-wizard" title="Click to open in a new window or tab" target="_blank">https://kb.infinitecampus.com/help/standards-alignment-wizard</a><br />• Grading Setup - Study Guide - <a href="https://kb.infinitecampus.com/help/grading-setup-study-guide" title="Click to open in a new window or tab" target="_blank">https://kb.infinitecampus.com/help/grading-setup-study-guide</a><br />• Grade Submission Process - Study Guide - <a href="https://kb.infinitecampus.com/help/grade-submission-process-study-guide" title="Click to open in a new window or tab" target="_blank">https://kb.infinitecampus.com/help/grade-submission-process-study-guide</a><br />• Campus Instruction: Grade Book Basics - Study Guide - <a href="https://kb.infinitecampus.com/help/campus-instruction-grade-book-basics-study-guide" title="Click to open in a new window or tab" target="_blank">https://kb.infinitecampus.com/help/campus-instruction-grade-book-basics-study-guide</a><br />• Campus Instruction: Advanced Grade Book and Posting Grades - Study Guide - <a href="https://kb.infinitecampus.com/help/campus-learning-advanced-grade-book-and-posting-grades-study-guide" title="Click to open in a new window or tab" target="_blank">https://kb.infinitecampus.com/help/campus-learning-advanced-grade-book-and-posting-grades-study-guide</a><br />• Understanding Tool Rights (Grading & Standards) - <a href="https://kb.infinitecampus.com/help/tool-rights-grading-and-standards" title="Click to open in a new window or tab" target="_blank">https://kb.infinitecampus.com/help/tool-rights-grading-and-standards</a><br /> <br />Please contact <a href=mailto:standards@education.ky.gov>standards@education.ky.gov</a> with any questions. <br /> <br />Caryn Davidson<br />Academic Program Consultant<br />Division of Program Standards<br />Office of Teaching and Learning<br />Kentucky Department of Education<br />Email: <a href=mailto:caryn.davidson@education.ky.gov>caryn.davidson@education.ky.gov</a><br />Phone Number: 502-564-9850 x 4162<br /></description> <author>Kentucky Department of Education</author> <guid>http://notify.education.ky.gov/Alerts/Details/48a62334-895e-4ca3-bbc3-9474b8c62274</guid> <pubDate>Fri, 25 Jun 2021 18:49:41 GMT</pubDate> <category>All Users</category> <category></category> <category></category> </item> <item> <title>KSIS Notification: Release of Campus.2124 delayed until Friday, June 25</title> <link>http://notify.education.ky.gov/Alerts/Details/91a88743-04a4-4474-b9b4-15e318cd83a0</link> <description>Infinite Campus notified KDE of an issue with printing mailing labels and envelopes from the Student Summary tab in Campus.2124.

If the last day of school for your students is 5/7/2021 then the final School Participation Plan end date should be 5/7/2021. <br /><br />Please ensure the data on this tab is up to date for each school. This tab collects school level data of the participation plan, transitions to and from Hybrid, 100% In Person and 100% Remote. Instruction for this data entry is available on the School Participation Plan 2021 Guidance Document (<a href="https://bit.ly/2F1Qzye" title="Click to open in a new window or tab" target="_blank">https://bit.ly/2F1Qzye</a>).<br /><br />A KDE custom report is available for districts to utilize to monitor entry of this data. The name of the report is School Participation Plans. The report is located in Infinite Campus via KY State Reporting | KDE Reports. Appropriate district and school staff should be provided user access to this report. The report provides a highlighted row to emphasize the school’s current plan. Error messages will display for each school that has not entered any participation plan and for schools whose plans entered are less than the total instructional days. The report also provides a YTD percentage indicating the proportion of school instructional days allocated to each participation plan. Additional details and uses for the report can be found on the report’s Quick Reference Card (<a href="https://bit.ly/2LkvcMh" title="Click to open in a new window or tab" target="_blank">https://bit.ly/2LkvcMh</a>).<br /><br />KDE will extract final data on May 28th.

It may take a couple of days for the process to be completed in all districts. This Campus process will not change any KAS content that has previously been imported. <br /> <br />This process will assign a rubric called “Blank Rubric” to the new KAS items. Districts can assign a different rubric in the Standards Bank or rename “Blank Rubric” and define the scores as desired. Next steps for utilizing the KAS in Infinite Campus include configuring rubrics and aligning standards to courses. <br /> <br />The KAS in Infinite Campus should be regarded as an interactive digital companion that can provide direct support for teachers who wish to utilize such features as standards-based grading, progress monitoring, and lesson planning in Infinite Campus. To design high-quality, standards-aligned instruction, educators should continue to use the KAS documents available on the KYstandards.org. Additionally, for digital efficiencies, this will establish the framework to include future course-by-course, course code alignment with connected academic standards through our statewide student information system. <br /> <br />Campus Community Resources <br />• Align standards to courses or course masters en masse using Standards Alignment Wizard - <a href="https://kb.infinitecampus.com/help/standards-alignment-wizard" title="Click to open in a new window or tab" target="_blank">https://kb.infinitecampus.com/help/standards-alignment-wizard</a><br />• Grading Setup - Study Guide - <a href="https://kb.infinitecampus.com/help/grading-setup-study-guide" title="Click to open in a new window or tab" target="_blank">https://kb.infinitecampus.com/help/grading-setup-study-guide</a><br />• Grade Submission Process - Study Guide - <a href="https://kb.infinitecampus.com/help/grade-submission-process-study-guide" title="Click to open in a new window or tab" target="_blank">https://kb.infinitecampus.com/help/grade-submission-process-study-guide</a><br />• Campus Instruction: Grade Book Basics - Study Guide - <a href="https://kb.infinitecampus.com/help/campus-instruction-grade-book-basics-study-guide" title="Click to open in a new window or tab" target="_blank">https://kb.infinitecampus.com/help/campus-instruction-grade-book-basics-study-guide</a><br />• Campus Instruction: Advanced Grade Book and Posting Grades - Study Guide - <a href="https://kb.infinitecampus.com/help/campus-learning-advanced-grade-book-and-posting-grades-study-guide" title="Click to open in a new window or tab" target="_blank">https://kb.infinitecampus.com/help/campus-learning-advanced-grade-book-and-posting-grades-study-guide</a><br />• Understanding Tool Rights (Grading & Standards) - <a href="https://kb.infinitecampus.com/help/tool-rights-grading-and-standards" title="Click to open in a new window or tab" target="_blank">https://kb.infinitecampus.com/help/tool-rights-grading-and-standards</a> <br /> <br />Please contact <a href=mailto:standards@education.ky.gov>standards@education.ky.gov</a> with any questions. <br /> <br />Caryn Davidson<br />Academic Program Consultant<br />Division of Program Standards<br />Office of Teaching and Learning<br />Kentucky Department of Education<br />Email: <a href=mailto:caryn.davidson@education.ky.gov>caryn.davidson@education.ky.gov</a> <br />Phone Number: 502-564-9850 x 4162<br /></description> <author>Kentucky Department of Education</author> <guid>http://notify.education.ky.gov/Alerts/Details/eaebd2a1-1d62-4cdf-8019-1d0c46425cff</guid> <pubDate>Thu, 08 Apr 2021 15:43:31 GMT</pubDate> <category>All Users</category> <category></category> <category></category> </item> <item> <title>KSIS Notification: Release of Campus.2112 tonight</title> <link>http://notify.education.ky.gov/Alerts/Details/79c3e9a2-9837-4a5f-a8fd-a4697f6578f7</link> <description>Reminder: Release of Campus.2112 will be deployed to all districts tonight, Wednesday, April 7, at 7:00 p.m. (Central)/8:00 p.m. (Eastern).

KHEAA is providing the following guidance on how student eligibility for the Dual Credit scholarship, Work Ready DC scholarship, and Kentucky Educational Excellence Scholarship (KEES) programs will work for students that take the ‘do over’ option. Feel free to share this news with others in your school district who may need this information.<br /><br /> Dual Credit Scholarship (DCS)<br />• The DCS program is statutorily limited to two successfully completed dual credit courses. Students in grades 11 or 12 for the 2021-2022 academic year will be able to use whatever DCS eligibility they have remaining at the end of the 2020-2021 year. <br />o Students who have only used one DCS and achieved a passing grade in the scholarship course will be eligible for their one remaining DCS next year if they are still in high school and not graduated. <br />o Students who have used two DCS and achieved passing grades in both scholarship courses have exhausted their eligibility; they will not have any DCS available next year. <br />o Students who used DCS this year and did not successfully complete their course (failure or withdrawal) will be eligible for another scholarship next year if they are still in high school and not graduated. <br />• As a reminder, DCS cannot be used for developmental courses, remedial courses, or repeats of the same course. <br /> Work Ready Dual Credit Scholarship (WKDC)<br />• Students in grades 9-12 are eligible to receive two WKDC scholarships each year for dual credit coursework that is part of a Career and Technical Education pathway. Although the original intent of the WKDC program was for students to receive two free courses each year of high school for a total of eight, the program’s statutory language does not specify eight courses as a limit. This means students repeating a grade level next year would be eligible for two WKDC scholarships the same as students advancing to a higher grade level. <br />• The same rules apply to WKDC as DCS regarding no funding for developmental, remedial, or repeated coursework.<br /> Kentucky Educational Excellence Scholarship (KEES)<br />• KEES is limited to one base award for grade point average (GPA) per grade level.<br />• Schools will need to recalculate the annual GPAs of students who repeat a grade next year, just as they would any other year a grade level is repeated. The GPA calculation should include all of the student’s work for that particular grade level (even if over two academic years), unless the school/district is allowing a course to be repeated with the initial grade being replaced entirely. <br />• Schools should be aware there is not an automated process for recalculating KEES GPAs in this manner. All GPA recalculations will need to be performed manually by the schools and then reported to KHEAA via the KEES portal on the agency’s website.<br /> <br /> It should be noted that students who graduate from high school during the 2020-2021 year are no longer considered high school students for scholarship purposes and, therefore, are not eligible for Dual Credit or Work Ready Dual Credit scholarships during the 2021-2022 year. High school graduates who desire to use their KEES awards for postsecondary expenses must be enrolled at the postsecondary level as regular postsecondary students who are subject to full tuition rates. KEES cannot be used to pay for dual credit.<br /><br />Feel free to contact me with questions or concerns.<br /><br />Becky Gilpatrick<br />Director of Student Aid<br />KHEAA<br /> (502) 696-7394<br /><a href=mailto:rgilpatrick@kheaa.com>rgilpatrick@kheaa.com</a><br /></description> <author>Kentucky Department of Education</author> <guid>http://notify.education.ky.gov/Alerts/Details/7e1519cd-f2dc-452c-90c3-0f7c40a020a0</guid> <pubDate>Tue, 30 Mar 2021 16:32:08 GMT</pubDate> <category>All Users</category> <category></category> <category></category> </item> <item> <title> KSIS Alert: Data Visualization System Down</title> <link>http://notify.education.ky.gov/Alerts/Details/313cb5a9-fa98-4aad-b68a-6077266aba8d</link> <description>KSIS Contact:<br /><br />The Data Visualization system is currently down for most districts.

Per HB208, Districts will be granted no more five (5) NTI days when the school district is closed for health or safety reasons outside of the school’s hybrid schedule from March 29th to the end of the school year. Days that are part of the school’s hybrid model, such as, every Friday students participate virtually so schools can be sanitized will not count as one of the districts 5 allowable NTI days. Beginning on March 29, 2021 any all student virtual days that are part of the school’s hybrid plan should be coded as a regular school day in the school calendar. Only NTI days used outside of a school’s hybrid plan will be coded as N: Non-Traditional Instruction in the school’s calendar up to 5 days.<br /><br />Any days prior to March 29, 2021 coded as Non-Traditional Instruction do not need to be changed.<br /><br />This attachment provides details and screenshots of the appropriate coding of days in the school calendar based on the passing of HB208.

If the student has an active local Foster Care record, a Due Date equal to the Request Date will be set on the Process Inbox message as well.<br />Core Product<br />Blended Learning/ Scheduling<br />• The following modifications have been made to address date logic and to prepare for end of year processing for Blended Learning Groups:<br />o A school year must be selected in the Campus toolbar in order to create new blended learning groups or adjust existing groups.<br />o Changing the year in the toolbar when in the middle of creating or adjusting groups returns you to the landing page of that tool. Reopening the tool resets the dates to match the selected school year.<br />o When creating a blended learning group, the end date entered in the New Blended Learning Group tool is also added to the database and displays for all student group assignment end dates associated with the group.<br />o End dates can only be entered if it is the current date or in the future.<br />o End dates are required when editing or adjusting groups.<br />o Extending a future group end date does not update the student group assignment end date.<br />o Shortening a future group end date does update or delete any group assignment or day rotation necessary.<br />• Blended Learning Group names can only be used one time per school year.<br />• A new Exclude Summer School Calendars checkbox has been added to the New Blended Learning Groups tool. When marked, any summer school calendar (Summer School checkbox is marked on the Calendar Information editor) is ignored when Blended Learning Groups are created (step 2. Group Day Rotation).<br />• Corrects issue where users could not remove a Blended Learning Group from a current or future date in Calendar Days.<br />o A new Gap and Overlap Report has been added to Scheduling Reports. This report identities a date range where the student is not assigned to a Blended Learning Group (gap) or is assigned to multiple Blended Learning Groups (overlap). The report can be generated for both gaps and overlaps, for just gaps, or just overlaps.<br />Campus Parent<br />• Online Meal Benefits Application update - On the step where applicants confirm child household members, the child checkbox next to the signer is now disabled if the signer does not have an assigned school. This change was made to help prevent parents from accidently marking themselves as children on the application. As part of this change, a pop-up confirmation message now displays between the Children and Gross Income steps if there are people marked as children and do not have a school listed. Users can return to the household step to fix mistakes or move forward if correct.<br />Campus Student<br />• Assignment - LTI partners who have "Embeddable Content" enabled are now available for students to use when submitting assignments through Campus Student. Once the Embeddable Content partner is enabled in Digital Learning Partner Applications Configuration, students can embed content by clicking the + sign in the WYSIWYG editor of an assignment and selecting the partner.<br />Health<br />• A new tool, Health Office Visit Cancellations, has been added to allow users to batch cancel all previously scheduled, unsaved Health Office Visits when there have been canceled School Days. This tool has a separate tool right and needs to be manually given to appropriate users.<br />Scheduling<br />• A new List format and an option to include the Teacher Display Name has been added to the Teacher Schedule Batch.<br />o The List format prints the courses by term and day.<br />• When the Teacher Display Name option is marked, the report prints the name of the teacher as entered from the Teacher Display Name field on the Section editor.<br />System Administration • Parents and Students can now view Activity Registration information including all forms associated with an activity in Campus Parent and Campus Student.<br />• Process Inbox messages have been added to alert SIS administrators of issues encountered with their Search Framework, as well as when these issues have been resolved.<br />• A Lock toggle has been added to Menu Item, Category, and Tool editors within the Custom Tool Placement Editor to allow users to lock these items and ensure they cannot to be edited or deleted by any users (including the user who set the toggle).<br />Transcripts<br />• The Add Rows modal now automatically populates fields based on previous selections.<br />User Security<br />• Tool rights in the New Look and Feel of Campus have been updated to match the new navigation structure. Existing tool rights between Classic Campus and the New Look of Campus should match and require no additional user intervention however, any rights changed after updating to Campus.2108 are at a user's discretion and maintenance.<br />• The tool rights editor in the New Look of Campus has been enhanced to include a search feature, allowing you to narrow the tool rights list by search criteria. There is also a new Tag Filters area, allowing you to quickly filter out administrative tools to make adding teacher and staff tool rights easier. To view administrative tools, simply remove the Non Admin tag filter.<br /><br />Becky Jenkins<br />KSIS Service Lead, Division of School Data Services<br />Office of Education Technology<br />Kentucky Department of Education<br />300 Sower Blvd.<br />Frankfort, KY 40601<br />(502) 564-2020, ext. 2475<br />Email: <a href=mailto:becky.jenkins@education.ky.gov>becky.jenkins@education.ky.gov</a></description> <author>Kentucky Department of Education</author> <guid>http://notify.education.ky.gov/Alerts/Details/5c33a37e-b444-433e-9310-ff9bbf510fe1</guid> <pubDate>Wed, 03 Mar 2021 15:07:12 GMT</pubDate> <category>All Users</category> <category></category> <category></category> </item> <item> <title>KSIS Notification: Infinite Campus.2108 release</title> <link>http://notify.education.ky.gov/Alerts/Details/ff5f23d8-1fcb-403c-aedb-7ee3a4da2d0a</link> <description>FYI – the information below was shared with Foster Care liaisons today. <br /><br />From: Newton, Windy - Office of Continuous Improvement and Support <br />Sent: Tuesday, March 2, 2021 2:46 PM<br />Good afternoon,<br />The Infinite Campus .2108 release will be deployed to district production sites on March 3rd.

Release requests for students with an active local foster care record will include a due date equal to the request date. The due date alerts the district receiving the request that action must be taken immediately to comply with House Bill 312 (2020) (<a href="https://apps.legislature.ky.gov/record/20rs/hb312.html" title="Click to open in a new window or tab" target="_blank">https://apps.legislature.ky.gov/record/20rs/hb312.html</a>) which requires the release of a foster care student’s records by the end of the working day the request is received. Records request messages for all students will include the name of the district requesting the release as well as the grade level and school number associated with the student’s local enrollment record. <br /> <br />Please ensure all school and district personnel responsible for foster care program and student records transfer are aware of the coming enhancements.

If the student has an active local Foster Care record, a Due Date equal to the Request Date will be set on the Process Inbox message as well.<br />Core Product<br />Blended Learning/ Scheduling<br /> • The following modifications have been made to address date logic and to prepare for end of year processing for Blended Learning Groups:<br />o A school year must be selected in the Campus toolbar in order to create new blended learning groups or adjust existing groups. <br />o Changing the year in the toolbar when in the middle of creating or adjusting groups returns you to the landing page of that tool. Reopening the tool resets the dates to match the selected school year.<br />o When creating a blended learning group, the end date entered in the New Blended Learning Group tool is also added to the database and displays for all student group assignment end dates associated with the group.<br />o End dates can only be entered if it is the current date or in the future.<br />o End dates are required when editing or adjusting groups.<br />o Extending a future group end date does not update the student group assignment end date.<br />o Shortening a future group end date does update or delete any group assignment or day rotation necessary.<br />• Blended Learning Group names can only be used one time per school year. <br />• A new Exclude Summer School Calendars checkbox has been added to the New Blended Learning Groups tool. When marked, any summer school calendar (Summer School checkbox is marked on the Calendar Information editor) is ignored when Blended Learning Groups are created (step 2. Group Day Rotation).<br />• Corrects issue where users could not remove a Blended Learning Group from a current or future date in Calendar Days. <br />o A new Gap and Overlap Report has been added to Scheduling Reports. This report identities a date range where the student is not assigned to a Blended Learning Group (gap) or is assigned to multiple Blended Learning Groups (overlap). The report can be generated for both gaps and overlaps, for just gaps, or just overlaps.<br />Campus Parent<br /> • Online Meal Benefits Application update - On the step where applicants confirm child household members, the child checkbox next to the signer is now disabled if the signer does not have an assigned school. This change was made to help prevent parents from accidently marking themselves as children on the application. As part of this change, a pop-up confirmation message now displays between the Children and Gross Income steps if there are people marked as children and do not have a school listed. Users can return to the household step to fix mistakes or move forward if correct.<br />Campus Student<br /> • Assignment - LTI partners who have "Embeddable Content" enabled are now available for students to use when submitting assignments through Campus Student. Once the Embeddable Content partner is enabled in Digital Learning Partner Applications Configuration, students can embed content by clicking the + sign in the WYSIWYG editor of an assignment and selecting the partner.<br />Health<br /> • A new tool, Health Office Visit Cancellations, has been added to allow users to batch cancel all previously scheduled, unsaved Health Office Visits when there have been canceled School Days. This tool has a separate tool right and needs to be manually given to appropriate users.<br />Scheduling<br /> • A new List format and an option to include the Teacher Display Name has been added to the Teacher Schedule Batch.<br />o The List format prints the courses by term and day.<br />• When the Teacher Display Name option is marked, the report prints the name of the teacher as entered from the Teacher Display Name field on the Section editor.<br />System Administration • Parents and Students can now view Activity Registration information including all forms associated with an activity in Campus Parent and Campus Student.<br />• Process Inbox messages have been added to alert SIS administrators of issues encountered with their Search Framework, as well as when these issues have been resolved.<br />• A Lock toggle has been added to Menu Item, Category, and Tool editors within the Custom Tool Placement Editor to allow users to lock these items and ensure they cannot to be edited or deleted by any users (including the user who set the toggle).<br />Transcripts <br />• The Add Rows modal now automatically populates fields based on previous selections.<br />User Security<br /> • Tool rights in the New Look and Feel of Campus have been updated to match the new navigation structure. Existing tool rights between Classic Campus and the New Look of Campus should match and require no additional user intervention however, any rights changed after updating to Campus.2108 are at a user's discretion and maintenance.<br />• The tool rights editor in the New Look of Campus has been enhanced to include a search feature, allowing you to narrow the tool rights list by search criteria. There is also a new Tag Filters area, allowing you to quickly filter out administrative tools to make adding teacher and staff tool rights easier. To view administrative tools, simply remove the Non Admin tag filter.<br /> <br />Becky Jenkins<br />KSIS Service Lead, Division of School Data Services<br />Office of Education Technology<br />Kentucky Department of Education<br />300 Sower Blvd.<br />Frankfort, KY 40601<br />(502) 564-2020, ext. 2475<br />Email: <a href=mailto:becky.jenkins@education.ky.gov>becky.jenkins@education.ky.gov</a><br /></description> <author>Kentucky Department of Education</author> <guid>http://notify.education.ky.gov/Alerts/Details/a93d3e10-1c7a-4113-bd23-ab3a06fdf1a9</guid> <pubDate>Fri, 26 Feb 2021 19:49:13 GMT</pubDate> <category>All Users</category> <category></category> <category></category> </item> <item> <title>KSIS Notification: Infinite Campus.2108 release (student records transfers)</title> <link>http://notify.education.ky.gov/Alerts/Details/4e08f188-495d-479f-802d-29438f419123</link> <description>KSIS Points of Contact: <br /><br />FYI - The information below was shared with Foster Care Liaisons earlier today.

THANKS<br /><br />From: Newton, Windy - Office of Continuous Improvement and Support <br />Sent: Friday, February 26, 2021 10:13 AM<br />Good morning Foster Care Liaisons,<br />The next Infinite Campus.2108 release, scheduled for deployment March 10, contains enhancements to the Process Alerts Request to assist districts in processing requests promptly. Release requests for students with an active local foster care record will include a due date equal to the request date. The due date alerts the district receiving the request that action must be taken immediately to comply with House Bill 312 (2020) (<a href="https://apps.legislature.ky.gov/record/20rs/hb312.html" title="Click to open in a new window or tab" target="_blank">https://apps.legislature.ky.gov/record/20rs/hb312.html</a>) which requires the release of a foster care student’s records by the end of the working day the request is received. Records request messages for all students will include the name of the district requesting the release as well as the grade level and school number associated with the student’s local enrollment record. <br /> <br />Please ensure all school and district personnel responsible for foster care program and student records transfer are aware of the coming enhancements.
